I'm a doctor and was holding back for the entire video; given that we are trained to hide our emotions in clinical settings. I heard "Trust me..." and rolled my eyes, assuming the narrator was about to say "I'm a doctor." When he said "I'm in a lab coat" I lost it laughing and crying at the same time. You don't need a medical school education or a PhD to positively influence people's lives, or any formal education at all for that matter. Just a simple message like this can really influence a person's outlook on life and how they feel about themselves. Even someone like me; a cold, conditioned medical professional whose life centers around neutralizing my feelings and emotions. I'm going to call my dad and do this as soon as it isn't 3:20 a.m. on a Thursday night, because I have a day off tomorrow.

In the period between childhood and maturity, we're often reluctant to honestly express our gratitude. But when we leave the things we had far behind, we come to realize with painful clarity just how precious they were. Just how happy they made us. I'm crying again, goddamn it.

Im greatful for my younger brother, not only because i have someone to talk to and is always there. But because he got me out of deppression and stopped from suiciding in the garage. Im grateful that he helped me see what i had lost sight of, he helped me see what was in front of me this whole time. Which was my family, my brother saved my life. Gave me hope that things would get better. My brother is my best friend that nothing / no one can replace. Im grateful for having him around, despite the times that we fight and hate eachother. There isnt anything in the world that will change that. My brother who is now 12 at the time has saved the life of someone who was 17 and have been going into the darkest moments of deppression. Thanks to him, I'm still in good health. My younger brother, whom at the time didnt care of what i did for the longest time, did something that even i couldnt do. That was, showing me the pain that loved ones would have to endure, for my careless thoughts, while blinded in deppression. Thanks to him I found what i have been missing. Thank you bro. For having my back when i needed it the most then and now.

I am grateful for marijuana in that it served as a catalyst for us all to have some time in nature, without the lab coats, without the imposition of manmade technologies and without the sterile scientific mindset. I am grateful that although we may want to sometimes stand apart analytically in the descriptor language of scientists, we are also realizing that the nature of mind and history is also cyclical return to the truly natural unity of wholistic vibration. Wholistic vibration is an elusive concept to the logos, like 'Aloha', it is one aspect that small kids instantly understand but those more initiated into society find marijuana experiences may be very helpful to aid in revival of. It wasn't until marijuana that I fully went back, knowing it didn't mean all had been destroyed, only that the flowers, ground and fruits of nature would also be coming with me, not restrained or diminished. I was able to talk to the Buddha in the plants and for the peace I gave thanks.

Don't know why 391 people dislike this video, and I can only imagine it may trigger some memory that is hurting, and hope those are about the nice things happened in your lives. I have to press "like "and like just can not express my gratefulness to this video, since due to this video, my daughter was inspired and wrote a letter to me as a Christmas gift expressing her gratefulness and love to me , and described me as her "Most important person in her life, an Awesome supporter and company,and a Gracious and Fun Mom". This is by far the most precious gift I have ever received in my life, and I will cherish it and hold it dear to my heart! Because this letter, I had the most wonderful Christmas, though I almost cried my eyes out while reading her touching words. Last night, I put it under my pillow, and had a sound , relaxed and long sleep! What a priceless Christmas gift that I have, and I would like to share my joy and happiness to all of you. I am grateful for this "Science of Happiness" Video! IT WORKS!

This video almost 10 years ago changed my life. And I have changed so many lives living this out.. Anytime I speak highly about someone to someone else, I often call and message the person I was talking about in that moment to express that to them. I've also asked close friends who talk someone else up, to call that person in the moment to express that. They're shy about doing it at first, but once they do.. they see how much their life change. From the bottom of my heart, I hope you see this. Thank you for this video as it moved more mountains in so many people's lives than you'll ever realize

My mum and I aren't in the same country and I haven't called her in 3 wks. This has reminded me that inspite of all the ups and downs in our relationship and all our disagreements she still wants the best for me. We're pretty much oil and water and I remember exactly when that happened when I was younger. As much as it is hard for either of us to verbally communicate affection, it's important I let her know I appreciate how much she's done for me.

It is nice to see that with all of our social media where people do not actually meet other people face to face and appear to hate each other, that when it comes right down to it and their feelings are exposed, there is a genuine loving and caring individual. This strengthened my belief even if it's just a little that people can still actually be kind and caring. We need more of this rather than the hatred you see on television.

I wonder how much of this can be attributed to expressing gratitude, versus genuine connection? Those who weren't able to call the person, still expressed their gratitude in writing, but I think having those heart-felt conversations with another, are some of the most meaningful experiences we can have in life. Especially in a culture that emphasizes individualism, life can feel very isolating. Our mental health craves community and connection, and expressing gratitude is a great gateway through the walls we typically hide behind

Each student did the same activity and called someone from class--the lesson was not lost on anyone! So many of them were talking about how well it worked: "I called my mom, and she said I made her day, and now I feel really good that I changed her day!" This was the most powerful lesson I have ever taught! Thank you!

I had my clients write a gratitude list and on the list they put 3 things they are grateful for. 3 people they are grateful for and 3 reasons why. I wish I had of asked them to call those 3 people! It was awesome though. They shared openly and so many emotions from joy to tears to recognition on how they felt about them etc. I explained that I do a gratitude list in prayers in the morning when awaking and evening before bed. It has had such a powerful influence over my life and attitude towards life. Love this!

There is a glow of thanks in my eyes tonight, I have walked freely through a free America, where Buddha is in abundance and as common as the weeds. Thank you, America, you are the land that allows us oneness, you give us all connections but you also let us be alone, in your natural glory, you are a Buddha pure land. America you have made us friends to all cultures, highlighting that we are one at the root and as unique as the colors of a rainbow in individuality. Because you have made friendship through education and ended misconception you recieve the gift of all the parts helping one cause. I am grateful for the liberations that are yet to blossom from the boughs of American trees, I am in thanksgiving every day knowing that all beings will be liberated from injustice. America they will not mine your metals and oils because the liberty growing there is more renewable! Liberty itself is a resource that we must realize we have in prime , karmas law

I just sent my mom and sisters a long text saying that I love them. I don't remember the last time I've said it but I'm grateful they exist. My mother for her sacrifices, my elder sister for her protection(she's small and crazy. Filipino women, am I right?) and my little sister for saving me. Because if it wasn't for her existence, I would've committed suicide at a young age and I realised one day back then that I didn't want to put her through that. I don't think I've cried this long in decades. I'm a 28y old man bawling his eyes out over a text. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I am preparing to teach a short course in the elements of the law of attraction and, of course, one of those elements is gratitude. I happened on this video and enjoyed it so much - and the resulting tears were inevitable! I am now certain that the course I'm planning is exactly what I need to do. Thank you for the gift you've given all your viewers.

Hey y'all this is a video about expressing gratitude so here I go. You are amazing. Thank you for existing. It's amazing that you make the effort. If you didn't the world would be a very sad, lonely place. Thank you for being all the teachers, waiters, scientists, police officers, and every job under the sun. Even if you don't have a job, thank you for being that one person to make somebody else's day a little brighter. Thank you for being you.

I've been doing a gratitude challenge for 2 months. Write 3 things you are grateful for. Even if your upset. Everyday. Even small things. It has made me more aware of this short life and seriously more grateful than I have ever been. It takes less than 5 minutes and gives you more perspective. And made me around 70-80% better mood, wiser, it is awesome. And thank you ♡

omg I cried so much 😭😭 I feel so bad. I haven't given my mom enough gratitude for everything she has done for me. I had an arguement with her today and she probably hates me right now 😭😭😭 I really want to say sorry. I don't know how. I feel so awkward. I'm such a bad daughter 😭 my mom worked so hard to raise so many children yet I have to put more pressure on her. 😭😭 I'll do something for her and try to make it up. I'm acting like such a child 😔

Sweetheart, when you say to mama that you're sorry and that you understand your previous position was wrong, and if she is mature enough to celebrate your learning (but not react back in anger) yours will be the best of friendships that the world has ever seen

I'm a physician and was holding back for the entire video; given that we are trained to hide our emotions in clinical settings. I heard "Trust me..." and rolled my eyes, assuming the narrator was about to say "I'm a doctor." When he said "I'm in a lab coat" I lost it laughing and crying at the same time. You don't need a medical school education or a PhD to positively influence people's lives, or any formal education at all for that matter. Just a simple message like this can really influence a person's outlook on life and how they feel about themselves. Even someone like me; a cold, conditioned medical professional whose life centers around neutralizing my feelings and emotions. I'm going to call my mom and do this as soon as it isn't 3:20 a.m. on a Thursday night, because I have a day off tomorrow.

This is absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much. I know that since I have learned to be grateful to life and for life my happiness has increased expotentially. Thank you for sharing this. It reminds me of this quote: Gratitude is a recognition of the giving of others and of the giving of life. It is a recognition of what you have right now. It is a recognition of the miracle of your existence. From Joy and Gratitude by Marshall Vian Summers
